ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

I’d like to thank:

Everyone at Bantam for all the help and support they’ve given me over the years, especially my editor, Anne—you’ve taught me so much, and I really do appreciate it.

I’d also like to add a special thanks to my agent, Miriam, who is my rock when everything goes crazy. I don’t know what I’d do without you.

And finally, the Lulus—writing buddies, best friends, five women I couldn’t live without.
